IRS hiring 6500 new enforcers to collect Obamacare tax

by RSSFeed on July 5, 2012

An article posted on Alex Jones website, InfoWars.com, on Tuesday, July 3, 2012, reveals Rep. Kevin Brady, a Texas Republican, warns that the IRS will be hiring up to 6,500 tax enforcers to go after American citizens who refuse to pay the Obamacare tax. Or is it a penalty? Either way, it’s going to cost the American tax payer a bundle of money.

According to InfoWars.com, aside from the fact that Americans will be forced to comply with government mandated insurance coverage there are also nearly two dozen new tax increases that will be levied under Obamacare. If you think you have trouble understanding the tax forms now just wait until these new laws go into effect.

At least one of those new taxes will be used to offset the $300 million the IRS says it needs to manage the infrastructure needed to institute these new policies and hire 4,000 to 6,500 new tax enforcers to strong-arm the American public into paying the price of Obamacare.

However, according to Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz, these new tax enforcers won’t be collecting taxes, they’ll be collecting penalties. In a CNN interview she stated:

“This is a penalty that will be assessed on the tax return if you choose to roll the dice and make us all pay for your being irresponsible and increase all of our health care costs.”

Schultz says the difference is that a tax is assessed across a broad spectrum of people, namely, the entire population of America. This particular penalty, however, will only affect approximately 1% of American households, those who either can’t afford coverage or have no employee health care plan, and will only be assessed if you don’t ante up and buy your own health insurance.

Schultz stated that Americans will not be required to have health insurance under Obamacare. However, if you don’t then you’ll be assessed a penalty, and that penalty will be collected by the IRS on your annual tax return.

“You have to be responsible and you have to pay a penalty if you choose not to be.”

Schultz also claims that the reason the IRS will be collecting this penalty is because it’s just easier this way. But easier for whom?

Alex Jones cites an article at StockCityNews.com which calls the IRS “The Most Feared Government Establishment” and says merely the mention of the name strikes fear and anxiety into the hearts of 43% of Americans. Who better to put in charge of collecting this controversial tax than the one branch of government people fear the most, even though, according to Schultz, they won’t be collecting taxes, they’ll be collecting penalties?

Back in 2010, InfoWars.com revealed that $10 billion was being tossed around as the amount of money allocated to pay for 16,500 armed IRS agents to enforce the new bill. Even though the numbers have been reduced, Congressman Ron Paul summed it up quite nicely:

“16,500 armed bureaucrats coming to make this program work – if it was a good program and everybody liked it, you wouldn’t need 16,500 thugs coming with their guns and putting you in jail if you didn’t follow all the rules,”
